    Honestly this dlc brought back alot of memories and nostalgia all the maps were amazingly new and fresh they added alot of graphics and small details to the game the maps could have been better but i get why they put the maps they did. I was scrolling through the reviews and all the ones who gave negative gave their score for very stupid reasons if you havent played cod from the beginningHonestly this dlc brought back alot of memories and nostalgia all the maps were amazingly new and fresh they added alot of graphics and small details to the game the maps could have been better but i get why they put the maps they did.

Great job treyarch!… Expand

    The one thing that will always take me back and make me Call of Duty again is the Zombies mode that is offered (by treyarch particularly). This DLC was created for the fans who have been with the popular game mode since World at War, and I’m here to say it does not disappoint. Your in for a treat!!

    As someone deeply in love with the Call of Duty Zombies mode, and with almost 400 hours across all of the zombies maps in all of the games, this is the perfect dlc pack. At $30 for 8 fantastic zombies maps, this is a steal as in the past, it was $15 per map. Now it's less than $4 a map! Although some maps aren't some people's favorites, they all bring back the nostalgia of the old daysAs someone deeply in love with the Call of Duty Zombies mode, and with almost 400 hours across all of the zombies maps in all of the games, this is the perfect dlc pack. At $30 for 8 fantastic zombies maps, this is a steal as in the past, it was $15 per map. Now it's less than $4 a map! Although some maps aren't some people's favorites, they all bring back the nostalgia of the old days while bringing in some new flavor with gobblegums and Black Ops 3's other mechanics. There is enough variety in the 8 maps to appeal to all players. From the simplest map Nacht Der Untoten to the fan favorite Kino Der Toten to the complex, yet rewarding map Origins.

    If you are thinking about buying this dlc, you need to know which group you belong to so you can make the best decision. If you are a casual zombies player who has maybe played a couple maps here and there, or never played one at all, you should probably wait to buy this dlc. As $30 is a somewhat steep price for some people, try to borrow black ops 1/world at war from a friend or rent it as the maps from those games make up 7/8 of the maps in the dlc. You should play them for at least a couple hours solo and with some friends to get an idea of what zombies is all about. If you weren't a big fan try some different maps, but it still might not be for you. It may take a little time to really get into it, but once you do, you will be satisfied to be apart of the zombies community.

    If you are more of a moderate player and have played some maps multiple times and really enjoy the gameplay, or just want to experience why many people love the zombies mode, you should get this dlc. Even if you still aren't that skilled yet, most of the maps are simple enough where you can just open some doors, grab a gun and kill zombies. I would recommend Kino Der Toten as a map to practice honing in basic zombies skills like maximizing points, training, perks, and just becoming better at the game.

    If you are a hardcore fan of zombies like I am, well, you probably bought the dlc already. If you have only played the Black Ops 3 maps and maybe aren't really a big fan of long, tedious tasks and just want to kill some zombies, you should buy this dlc. If you were a fan of the Black Ops 3 maps, however, i would still recommend the dlc as you still get a map like Origins which was the building block for most of the Black Ops 3 zombies maps, and in my opinion, Origins is still the best zombies map ever made.

    Once again, this is the perfect dlc for someone like me who has played and thoroughly enjoyed all of the Treyarch zombies maps. It might not appeal to everyone, but I still think everyone should give it a try. Look online for guides and reviews for each map individually for a better idea of what your getting. Hope to see you all on the battlefield. Wait, is that the wrong game?    … Expand

    Black ops 3 is a very controversial game from the reviews half people like the game and are thankful on how the game was made and some really dislike where trey arch the company that makes black ops saga in which direction there heading the game into as in their opinion it is very futuristic and unreal as you can “fly” which in real life is not real most of the people who say this is mostBlack ops 3 is a very controversial game from the reviews half people like the game and are thankful on how the game was made and some really dislike where trey arch the company that makes black ops saga in which direction there heading the game into as in their opinion it is very futuristic and unreal as you can “fly” which in real life is not real most of the people who say this is most of the time the older generation in my opinion in some cases I agree to an extent the jumping is not realistic and sometimes annoying but if the game was the same every time there is no suspense and enjoyment at this point I like black ops 3 as their zombies is so fun and exciting my level is prestige 5 level 35 zombies is very interesting the purpose of this game mode is to kill zombies mainly making it fun as you get or try to get to a high round. This is very enjoyable as it tests you and your online friends what round they can survive to making it interesting the downfall of this game mode is weapons being weakened even after pack a punch making certain guns useless and making the rounds harder it could make the game better by making players tense and making it way more enjoyable but it is also sometimes annoying when a gun you have pack a punched is fundamentally useless what I also don’t like is lag it might not be trey arch but when the host of the game lags out every one of your teammates lag out but when a non-host lags out nothing happens which is inconvenient… Expand

    Hands down the best Black Ops III expansion and one of the best in the history of Call of Duty brings back classic maps (no Mob of the Dead though, which is a bummer) and lets you revive your memories online. [09/2017, p.67]

    The remastered maps look great and really fit with the Black Ops III gameplay, but that doesn’t fully justify the price tag Activision is asking for this pack.

    A great showcase of how a much beloved series has evolved over nearly a decade. It still has some great moments and can still feel fresh and exciting, but those moments cant hold back the slump into grinding repetition most matches end up being.
